Lint: amino-acids-1

Spacing
error

"Essential amino acids cannot be synthesised by the cells, and therefore must be obtained from the diet.Conversely the non-essential amino acids can be made by the body and therefore are not mandatory constituents of a balanced diet."

Line 7:122 · 't.C' should have one space.
Isotope Notation
error

"Some amino acids can be labelled with radioactive isotopes for use in nuclear medicine 3,4. Methionine, for example, labelled with carbon-11 can be used in the study of tumours of the central nervous system 5-7. One more example: 18F-DOPA, an intermediate amino acid in the biosynthetic pathway of dopamine, labelled with fluorine-18 is used in the study of Parkinson disease 8-10."

Line 37:261 · Write the isotope as symbol-mass, e.g. F-18, not '18F'.
Ranges
warning

"Amino acids are the monomeric building blocks of proteins. Amino acids concatenate into chains, which are arbitrarily divided into peptides, polypeptides, or proteins according to chain length. Generally, chains of 10 or fewer amino acids are deemed to be peptides, chain length from 10-100 are polypeptides, and greater than ~100 amino acids are called proteins."

Line 1:341 · Don't add words such as 'from' or 'between' to describe a range of numbers.
Acronyms
warning

"All amino acids (except proline) consist of a carboxyl (-COOH) group and an amino (-NH2) group, with varying side chains."

Line 3:88 · 'NH' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"Proline is chemically strictly an imino acid, which has an imino (>C=NH) group, instead of an amino group, although for biological usage it is counted as an amino acid."

Line 4:90 · 'NH' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.
